ELECTRONIC PRESS KIT

An Electronic Press Kit (EPK for short) is a video reel sent to various media outlets (like TV News programs) for them to use to help promote a film. It usually contains a trailer, film clips, making of featurette, cast and crew interviews, behind the scenes footage, and other such stuff. Columbia Pictures produced a Ghostbusters EPK videocassette. This page will document the contents of the Ghostbusters EPK. All runtimes listed are the times stated in the EPK itself.

I don't own a copy of the EPK, but was provided the full information about its contents by Jeremy Glassman from Sony. The thumbnails used in the Videos section below are re-creations based on what I assume the title cards look like on the EPK. All of the contents from the Ghostbusters Electronic Press Kit (except for the film clips) can be found individually on the Ghostbusters 1&2 4K UHD & Blu-Ray 2019 5-Disc Set, which can be purchased from my store page.
